Were you a warrior cats kid, a guardians of ga’hoole owl kid, or a redwall kid growing up?

malyse · Jan 12, 2018

I saw this on tumblr recently and I was curious as to where Era's readers fell. Personally, I was a Redwall kid.

That's a different question.
You're either animorphs, goosebumps, or choose your own adventure.

I was choose your own adventure.

Earendil · Jan 12, 2018

What? I'm not sure I understand what any of these are.

I read just about anything I could get my hands on.

xxracerxx · Jan 12, 2018

Redwall 100%. I have the first three books in the series signed by Jacques.

Alucrid · Jan 12, 2018

is this about those books where the rabbits and fighting each other with spears and shit??

witty_mittie3 · Jan 12, 2018

Redwall kid here.

Dyle · Jan 12, 2018

Redwall all the way, there are few things better in life than putting rodents in medieval settings and letting them fight to the death

Doof · Jan 12, 2018

Watership Down over here. I have no idea what a Warrior Cat is, other than those cats boppin' their way back to Coney.

That is the Redwall series.

Poppy · Jan 12, 2018

Saya · Jan 12, 2018

Redwall. Really want to revisit that series. I wonder if its still as magical.

ManaByte · Jan 12, 2018

Thundercats

Mighty Chin · Jan 12, 2018

I recognize something from an episode of 30 Rock.

Reeeeedwaaaaalll
Was my jam in middle school.

I was an animorphs kid.

Pirate Bae · Jan 12, 2018

Redwall, for sure. I read all of them.

So good.

malyse · Jan 12, 2018

Some of y'all are showing your age. Or rather your lack of it.

Poppy · Jan 12, 2018

redwall is also pretty ridiculous

like foxes and weasels are evil period

wasnt there a book where a fox was adopted into redwall and grew up there but then still turned out evil in the end because FOXES ARE EVIL

maybe i am just too simple for brian jacques' allegory

caff!!! · Jan 12, 2018

I read Dean kootz in high school

SynthFetish · Jan 12, 2018

Maybe I'm too old, is this about Thundetcats?

I don't know why, but I just love this description lol. I didn't read any of these as a kid, my favorite series was the Chronicles of Prydain like The Black Cauldron, The High King, etc.

I think that's Watership Down.

Rinse Bassfunk · Jan 12, 2018

At first I had no idea what you were talking about, buy then looking at Redwall I get the feeling I did read some of those as a kid.

I was a Worst Witch/Horrible Histories/Tin Tin/Asterix kid. Worst Witch was probably the actual novels I read, but I couldn't tell you a single story now. I definitely enjoyed comic/graphic novels like Tin Tin over anything else. That and a whole heap of non fiction - novels have never done much for me, I blame television

ghostemoji · Jan 12, 2018

Redwall is dope AF. I have like 10 of those books on shelves in my old room at my parents house.

Shadybiz · Jan 12, 2018

...I'm old.

canseesea · Jan 12, 2018

My only experience with the subject.

Kind of surprised to hear the context. Or moreso, that there was a context.

Van Buren · Jan 12, 2018

Read almost every Redwall book

Bjones · Jan 12, 2018

Gijoe / transformers kid.

El Sloth · Jan 12, 2018

I never heard of any of these as a kid. I didn't hear about Redwall until I was an adult, and this is my first time hearing of the other two.

So, uh, what I meant to say was Thundercats

Dandy Crocodile · Jan 12, 2018

Redwall for sure. Warriors always felt like I was too old for it when it got really big.

excelsiorlef · Jan 12, 2018

With as much politeness as I can muster what the shit are those?

I was actually a goosebumps and animorphs kid. Probably read a good 30 of each.

Choose your own adventure always frustrated my lack of ability to be satisfied with my choices and I felt sort of cheapened by not getting to read half the book.

marrec · Jan 12, 2018

You better BELIEVE I was mother fuckin' redwall

Poppy · Jan 12, 2018

ive only heard of warrior cats on mbmbam and from like one other human being i ever talked to

Dook's Revenge · Jan 12, 2018

Toys R Us kid, please.

Tangled Up in Blue · Jan 12, 2018

I was a G.I. Joe/ThunderCats/Transformers/TMNT kid.

80s childhood was the best childhood.

Doof · Jan 12, 2018

Redwall is a young adult fantasy series about rodents, Gahoole is some kind of owl thing that Zack Snyder made a movie of. No idea what Warrior Cats is.

Instro · Jan 12, 2018

Redwall. My parents took me to a book signing in CA as a kid where I got the first book and had it signed. I think my mom was aware of him because she is also from Liverpool.

malyse · Jan 12, 2018

You know, I definitely put readers in the OP. If you didn't read and watched cartoons instead, don't feel obligated to post a comment.

marrec said:

I knew you were good people.

HStallion · Jan 12, 2018

I read every Redwall book that was available by age 11 and even watched the cartoon series
